Technology is evolving at a faster rate than many companies can keep up with, but Crypt TV has been ahead of the curve on delivering compelling, bite-sized horror content that can be enjoyed from your phone. With backers that include Eli Roth and Jason Blum, Crypt TV is building a brand geared toward the future of content consumption, and I caught up with Crypt TV's CEO & founder Jack Davis to learn more about the success and future of his multi-media horror platform:

For many, last year was filled with ups and downs, but one definite highlight was the varied and impressive output of genre entertainment. We’re in a golden age of horror in which we’re seeing incredible works of art in multiple mediums, and there’s so much out there to be thankful for.

This past summer, I was invited to Dallas for the annual QuakeCon gaming celebration, and while there, I entered the haunted city of Union in an immersive demo for the new video game The Evil Within 2. After surviving the demo, I had the chance to sit down with some of the creative team from The Evil Within 2, including Tango Gameworks Studio Director Shinji Mikami (also known for his work on the Resident Evil video game series), Game Director John Johanas, and Writer Trent Haaga (CheapThrills, Deadgirl).

We were introduced to the Giggling Guardian in recent gameplay footage from The Evil Within 2 (the same demo that Daily Dead Editor-in-Chief Jonathan James got to play at QuakeCon in Dallas), and now a new encounter with the otherworldly monster is featured in the latest gameplay footage from the survival horror experience.

I never thought I'd see the day when we got a sequel to Blade Runner, let alone a VR and immersive experience at Comic-Con. For those of you who attended the pop culture celebration in San Diego and are obsessed with Ridley Scott's 1982 sci-fi masterpiece—and I know there are many of you—I hope you didn't miss out on the chance to step into the world of Blade Runner in Alcon Entertainment and Johnnie Walker's special event to promote the upcoming release of Warner Bros.' Blade Runner 2049. And, in case you couldn't make it to the event, I have impressions and 50 photos from the experience.

Brianna Hildebrand (Deadpool) and John Cho (Star Trek Beyond) are the latest additions to the world of The Exorcist TV series, joining several returning actors in a new season that will take Father Marcus (Ben Daniels) and Father Tomas (Alfonso Herrera) from the streets of Chicago to a foster home off the West Coast. While at Comic-Con in San Diego, Daily Dead took part in interview roundtables with The Exorcist cast and executive producers Jeremy Slater and Sean Crouch, who shared what fans can expect in the second season that premieres on Friday, September 29th on FOX.

The Overlook Film Festival is something special. Easily the best genre event I’ve attended, Overlook was created for horror fans by a team whose passion for the genre runs deep. Not only have they scoured the globe for the latest horror movies that fans will get excited for, but they’ve also worked with some of the most creative people in performance art and immersive entertainment to offer attendees one-of-a-kind experiences.

The immersive game is THE reason why The Overlook Film Festival is a can’t-miss event. There are many film festivals, but there’s only one that included a weekend filed with murders, clues, a witch hunt, and me being gagged, zip-tied, and accused of being a serial killer.

At this past weekend’s Overlook Film Festival, Roger Corman was on hand to receive the “Master of Horror Award,” presented by Mick Garris. There are few people in the movie industry that have had the long lasting effect that Roger Corman has, and I was honored to speak with him during the festival to get his thoughts on modern filmmaking, seeing his older films digitally restored, and he also gave his advice to young filmmakers looking to stand out from the pack.

Sideshow Collectibles has long been celebrated for their incredibly detailed figures based on characters from pre-existing properties, but in recent years, fans have embraced the company's original creation, the Court of the Dead, which has introduced collectors to Death's eclectic army of the Underworld.

With Sideshow having a big presence at Monsterpalooza this past weekend, we recently caught up with Tom Gilliland, Chief Creative Officer of Sideshow Collectibles, and creator of the Court of the Dead, the design studio’s premiere original property. Continue reading to learn about what's next for the popular line of collectibles, including the possibility of new life-size figures, the amazing Malavestros Premium Format figure, upcoming jewelry from Badali and Han Cholo, and much more.

Eaglemoss Collections is known for their wide range of collectibles, including Star Trek ships, James Bond cars, and figures from The Walking Dead TV series, but their latest line of collectibles is going to be of particular interest to fans of the Alien and Predator franchises, and they’ve given us a preview of their new figures.

We've seen Rick Grimes and his group kicked around by Negan and The Saviors for the first part of Season 7, but things are starting to change in the second half. The Walking Dead returns on Sunday with an episode that's sure to keep fans talking, and I caught up with Andrew Lincoln ahead of the premiere to discuss the new episode, his Rick Grimes playlist for Season 7, working with Jeffrey Dean Morgan, and his excitement for the upcoming 100th episode.

We're back with our annual list of favorites here on Daily Dead. For those that are new to Daily Dead, we handle our year-end lists differently here. Rather than just covering films, our lists can extend to TV, games, collectibles, events, and anything else genre-related. In short, we’re sharing with you a list of our favorite horror experiences from 2016.

While many horror fans know Charlie Heaton as protective older brother and monster hunter Jonathan Byers from Stranger Things, moviegoers can see a different side of the actor in his new role as Stephen, the paralyzed son of Naomi Watts' character in Shut In. With the new thriller now out in theaters, Daily Dead had the chance to catch up with Heaton, who discussed the physical challenges of playing Stephen and also talked about beginning production on Stranger Things Season 2.

Always ready to defend his friends or say a one-liner worthy of printing out and hanging on your wall, it's easy to see why Abraham is such a fan favorite character on AMC's The Walking Dead. Following the season 7 premiere, Daily Dead, along with other journalists, recently had the opportunity to take part in a conference call interview with Cudlitz, who discussed filming the group's introduction to Negan and Lucille, the family dynamics of the show, and finding creative ways to keep a crucial secret in between seasons 6 and 7. [Spoiler warning for those who haven't watched the first episode of The Walking Dead Season 7.]
